So did they make the mk-19 more reliable? From my experience that thing would go, “duk, duk, duk, clink…”. Then we’d have to clear the jam and try again.
But a .50 or 7.62 would run until the belt was gone.
The company makes its “Buria” turret, an autonomous remote weapon station that can be placed in a fixed position on a tripod and fire grenades or a machine gun. Mykyta Rozhkov, Frontline Robotics’ chief business development officer, described it as “basically a metal robotic arm for a grenade launcher” or another weapon.
At the start of last year, the main use was placing it in a hidden position where it could fire on the enemy and blunt Russian attacks. But now, the weapons station is being used on ground robots, “so it can be mobile and be used as a small tank,” Rozhkov said.

Fair point…
I think it can do both:
Why stop at only one Mk-19? Use two or three. And a couple .50s too.
